Is this all there is?<br>
What’s missing for many American workers is passion, a positive emotional connection to our work—often our most energy-consuming pursuit. The good news is that with introspection, planning, action and support, you can redirect your career to incorporate what truly excites and invigorates you.<br>
<strong>Passion Drives the Most Successful Careers</strong> In the context of work, passion is more than a best-seller buzzword, according to Sally Hogshead, author of Radical Careering. “The word epassion’ has a cheesy connotation, but you have to see it as a nonnegotiable element of your career success,” she says. “In fact, if you’re going to be your most successful, you have to be passionate.”<br>

"We need to look around our environment and say, 'Is our environment encouraging the best talent possible? Are we choosing the right generational mix of people?'" Meagan Johnson says about the responsibilities managers have today.<br>
Johnson and her father, Larry, are multigenerational workforce experts who recently spoke with me about their new book, <a href="linksters:%20Coming%20to%20a%20Workplace%20Near%20You.%20Are%20You%20Ready?">Generations, Inc.: From Boomers to Linksters -- Managing the Friction Between Generations at Work</a>, and <a href="http://thehiringsite.careerbuilder.com/2010/09/22/get-ready-for-the-next-generation-of-workers-linksters/" rel="external">the challenge of managing multigenerational workforces</a>. One of the unique challenges managers face today, they told me, is learning to work with and manage a new generation of workers they refer to as "Linksters."<br>

<br>
According to a new survey by the employment company Manpower earlier this month, 84% of North American workers plan to actively look for a new job in 2011. This is up from a 60% response in 2009.<br>
<br>
According to Douglas J. Matthews, president and CEO of Right Management, a Manpower company, the results are "more about employee dissatisfaction and discontent than projected turnover."<br>
<br>
Matthews believes that the results are, in part, an expression of employee distrust in the ability of their organizations to thrive in the new economic climate.<br>

<strong>New research suggests that more CEOs would be shown the door if not for their personal ties with their boards, suggesting that it's time to rethink hiring and firing practices and the CEO's role at public companies.<br>

</strong>Boards of directors are facing increasing pressure to fire CEOs rather than allow them to linger. But what about the pressure boards feel to keep their CEOs in place?<br>

That's a good thing these days, because more likely than not, your potential employer will be digging into your past.<br>
<br>
According to a study released last winter by the Society for Human Resource Management, an astounding 80 percent of HR professionals say they conduct criminal background checks to screen potential employees. That's up 26 percent from 1996, an increase driven in part by increased concern over workplace violence after the 2001 terrorist attacks.<br>

Setting up a home office sends the idea that you are committed to the family and your career. But as good as it is to make you both professionally and domestically functional, working online—and at home—can present some problems. What are you supposed to choose between a wailing kid and a project nearing deadline? How are the kids expected to behave when mommy’s working? And who’s going to wash the dishes? Moms working online are sometimes torn between work and household duties. So, how do you draw the line?<br>

If nothing else, this age-old adage might be the most important piece of advice to remember in your job search, especially in today's market.<br>
Though job scams are prevalent at any time, today's tough economic times have increased the amount of scammers looking to take advantage of people desperate to make money and find a job. <br>
"With the economy sliding, people who might otherwise be skeptical want to find a silver lining and too often mistake the glitz-and-glamour promises of a scammer's ad for their path to financial security," says Christine Durst, co-founder and CEO of Staffcentrix, a training and development company that focuses on home-based work.<br>

But it’s not enough to simply get an internship. You also need to impress the employer during your time there.<br>
<strong>Here are 10 ways to get the most out of an internship: </strong><br>
<strong>1. Know what to expect.</strong><br>
<br>
Generally, the idea behind an internship is to give you some basic exposure to day-to-day work in your field. In most cases, you will not be doing glamorous, substantive work; you’ll be making other people’s lives easier.

Get your foot in the door and kick it wide open with these expert tips:<br>
<b>1. Be a great match on paper</b><br>
"Getting the job offer is often a function of the quality of match between you and the job requirements. That's why your résumé needs to have key words and achievements that are relevant to the specific job," says Catherine Jewell, author of "New Résumé New Career: Get the Job You Want with the Skills and Experience You Already Have."<br>
Scrutinize the job ad for tips on what might be most important to the employer. Ditch the generic résumé in favor of a document tailored to the position at hand, and consider cutting out details that don't contribute to your suitability.<br>

Now what? What does it really mean to “like” a Facebook page? Does it mean you really like the page? The brand? The product? Or are you just curious? Or might you even be guilty of lurking? <br>
What did or would you have liked to see after you click like? Are you wanting to be inspired? What will inspire you to read a post? Click a link or a tab? Will you ever engage with the brand, or owner of the page you “like”? Do you remember the name of the product, service or brand?<br>
<strong><em>The biggest question of all is, will you ever come back? Yes or No? </em></strong><br>
Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a big button that asked “will you be back, yes or now”? My guess is a high percentage of the people who click “yes, I’ll be back” in reality won’t.<br>
There is so much focus on Facebook “likes.” Be our fan, like our page and the list goes on. Many business leaders think they are making progress in social media if they add a Facebook logo to a print ad with the words “fan us”. However, you visit their page and they have the courtesy 150 “likers” and little to no engagement. How is that helping your bottom line revenue? How is it delivering an ROI?<br>
<strong><em>A Facebook “like” is the beginning, not the end of a relationship. </em></strong><br>
Inspiring your audience is not an option, but a requirement. Inspiring your audience to action, post “like” is the only way you will see a positive return on your investment.<br>

This issue becomes complicated as we have a very limited control over our salary when we work in a company or organization. There are no defined set of procedures which can be opted for negotiating your salary. However, you can use the guidelines given below to ask for an increase in your salary:<br>
<br>
•Research and collect information about your field. This would inform you about additional education and training required for establishing yourself as an expert in your field.

Because the jobs are done through the Internet, you normally don’t need to report to a regular office, but instead do all the works from the comfort of your own home.

But the success in working online depends partly on finding legitimate opportunities. It may be a demanding task since scams and fraud in the Internet are ballooning in an uncontrollable pace. Yet, if you are careful, you can find the right opportunity that suits your skill, working style, and personal priorities.

<li>“Why did they hire from the outside, I am already doing what’s required of that position?” </li>
<li>“Why did they get the job, I have more skills and experience than they do?” </li>

Higher PayYou see that the number of retired persons are increased in last few years, But on other side you also see that these retiree persons are looking for new job Why? This is a big question that these retired persons have not enough money for spending in his retired life. So they want a new full time or part time job for meeting their expenses.<br>
<br>
If we think why they need a new job after their retirement we see the various circumstances can contribute to underfunded retirement accounts, including failing to begin saving early enough, making insufficient monetary contributions over the years and poor market performance of the investments selected.<br>
